You are (or were) an officer in the Indian military, correct? If so, what do you think would be the best and worst scenarios that could play out here, and what should the US and our allies do about it?

The army is the only institution in Pakistan that really works. Civilian institutions are weak, corrupt and incompetent. The political parties are little more than fronts for ambitious individuals like Benazir Bhutto. As a British colonial creation, Pakistan has few of the features of a real state. Its more or less the Muslim majority part of India that did not want to be part of Hindu dominated India at independence in 1947.
